All This Over A Phone Call!? Woman Gets Kicked Off The Train For Refusing To Get Off Her Cellphone!

"Salem Police stopped an Amtrak train on Sunday
afternoon after reports a woman threatened other
passengers when they complained she was speaking
too loudly on her cell phone.
Lakeysha Beard of Tigard was charged with
disorderly conduct after police said she got into
a “verbal altercation” with passengers on the
train. The other passengers complained she refused
to put down her cell phone, even after train staff
made repeated announcements for passengers to not
use cell phones, according to police.
When a passenger confronted her about her loud
talking, police said Beard got aggressive. She had
reportedly been talking non-stop on the phone
since getting on the train in Oakland, Calif.
Beard was taken into custody until a family member
could come and pick her up.
The train pulled out of the station in Oakland at
10 p.m. the night before, according to Amtrak
spokeswoman Verae Graham. Conductors on the train
coordinated with police to stop the train at a
crossing about two miles from the Salem station.
That was around 2 p.m." - KATU
